Greg Field posted an interesting approach where he removed the neutral
indicator, flipped it upside-down so that the tang on the end pointed
up. Then, he carefully bent and checked, bent and checked, until just
the tip of the tang just came into contact with the bottom of the nub
on
the shift drum. Aparently, he has had good luck with this approach as
the light only comes on when he is in neutral.

Keith,

Loosen the nuts on the center post of the neutral switch and back them
off
almost to the end then lock them both back together along with the
wire
going to the light. Make sure you are in neutral and use the right
size
wrench to carefully turn the outermost nut till your light comes on.
Go
to
first gear and make sure light goes out. Small adjustments may be
needed
to
get perfect.

Thanx Matt and Greg for the response. I was checking out the
schematic
this eve and I can see what you mean. My brother and I were also
thinking of ideas and perhaps I need to check that the speedo
connections for those bulbs are working correctly (that all are
getting
the 12V when the ignition is turned on). Perhaps the oil light is not
getting the 12V.

Bought a new inline fuse from Radio Shack, auto style fuse that has a
30A max rating. The tube style fuse assy only rated to 20A. Still
wondering what size was in the old one. Will go with a 20A 1st and
see
what happens. Still wondering if it is needed, but will go ahead and
put it in anyways.

Any body have the procedure to adjust the neutral light switch?
Couldn't find it in the old Chilton manual, think it may be in the
owners manual which I don't have. I'm pretty sure that switch can be
adjusted so the light comes on and off as it should, just don't
remember

how to adjust it.

Keith,
voltage is supplied to all the idiot lights, which are grounded by
their various sensors/switches.
